Heater Box Replacement/Recirculation Flap

Postby SteveAllman » Tue Aug 14, 2018 8:52 pm

Hi All!

I'm new to this forum, have been a member of forums in the past i.e http://www.mgrover.org, http://www.ftooc.co.uk; and now this time I need help and have help to offer with my Megane 3.

This topic is an on going issue which I've had enough of and sent the car to a dealer to find out what's up.

My air con blows cold on the driver side and warm (not hot) on the passenger side. Usually this would be a either a blower malfunction, actuator malfunction, control panel malfunction; but this time I knew something else was a foot.

It turns out, according to Renault, the Heater Box (there words, with no hint of a part number) needs replacing, at the cost of £1600! (Parts, labour and VAT).

I remember the first time I looked at fixing this problem, and a garage somewhere in the Midlands was offering a repair service by drilling a hole in the side of the casing, and key hole surgery style fixing the broken Recirculation flaps that are causing the Air Con not to circulate and vent into the dashboard. However I cant find the website as my bookmarks have all vanished on my PC.

Does anyone know of this garage, and/or does anyone know anything about this problem and ways and means of fixing it without paying dealership prices.

Much appreciated everyone!!!
